Panamint
Cinema evolved from a hobby in 1998 to a full-time
enterprise in 2001, following the successful
release on VHS of a classic BBC railway about the
last days of steam on the West Highland Railway,
soon to be re-released on DVD with three other
restored films about the West Highland lines.
Since
then we have produced 70 DVDs featuring classic
documentaries from the Nation’s
film archive, television companies and independent
film producers.
Highlights
have been the premiere of the GPO Film Unit’s
“Night Mail” on DVD in 2002, John Grierson’s
“Drifters” also in 2002, Scotland’s first
Oscar winner, “Seawards the Great Ships”, and
the first Scottish Blu-ray “Faces of Scotland”
in 2010, featuring nine restored gems from the
Films of Scotland Collection, recently featured in
a six-part series on BBC Scotland.
Other
firsts have been a series of DVDs about industrial
companies including steel
making, hydro-electric schemes,
car manufacture and textiles, and a 2-disc
retrospective of Kay Mander, who produced many
fine films about training in war time and
important social issues of the 1940s.
Panamint
Cinema DVDs cover
all of the United Kingdom, and include the 1951
Festival of Britain, World War II propaganda
films, and Britain’s rural heritage.
